Equipment for measuring the distance of satellite in low orbit
Abstract
A ranging baseband equipment for utilization in low altitude satellite orbit is described. The equipment is a prototype which measures range up to 3,750 km with a resolution of 4 m and precision which is a function of the signal to noise ratio of the ranging signal.
